[Fiware-smart-cities-dc] Final countdown for the FIWARE Global Summit - Smart City activities

[Juanjo Hierro]

Dear members of the Smart Cities Domain Committee,

   We are facing the final countdown for our FIWARE Global Summit which 
comes full of content regarding activities linked to Smart Cities!

   I'm pretty sure you we will have the opportunity to meet face to face 
and discuss about how to make progress in the several activities within 
this domain.

   In addition to a compelling agenda for Smart Cities during the first 
day, October 23rd <https://www.fiware.org/summit/23-october/>, full of 
quite interesting panels and keynote speeches, we would like to raise 
your attention to the following sections focused on Smart Cities during 
the second day, October 24th <https://www.fiware.org/summit/24-october/>:

  * Front-runner Smart Cities workshop, from 10:00 to 12:30, where will
    make progress within this important initiative setting up first
    working groups working towards definition of common smart data
    models in two areas already highlighted as of relevance for our
    Community: Water Management and Tourism (smart destination).  More
    info here
    <https://docs.google.com/document/d/119ee4Ut9zYlOcFoMN5Hy23UFt0yAZGdoDGHfJ3Dxg0g/edit?usp=sharing>.
  * Smart Cities: from vision to execution, from 13:30 to to 15:15 where
    some of our leading Smart City platform providers will elaborate on
    their product offering and talk about their successful stories with
    real cities, driving their transformation thanks to FIWARE.
  * CEF Context Broker workshop, where you will be able learn all about
    plans of this important program where the FIWARE Context Broker
    technology has been selected as Building Block, as well as funding
    opportunities.

   Last but not least, I'm glad to share with you the FIWARE Smart 
Cities MSC charter 
<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TAfiStYoki9MLnR-FcCW6f5IL5YBEqF5CPv_qqQR9ZI/edit?usp=sharing> 
we have drafted with the help of the MSC temporary co-chairs.   It 
arrives a bit until the last minute for approval at the BoD but we hope 
it will be included in the agenda for approval.   If it gets approved, 
we will initiate the process for election of the official co-chairs of 
the MSC.

   We will come soon with dates for our next confcall of the MSC 
(hopefully already as official MSC :-)

   I take the opportunity to thank Albert Seubers, Gianluca Dianese, 
Arjen Hof, Giovanni Coppa and Lanfranco Marasso in the role they are 
exercising as temporary co-chairs.

   Cheers,

--
